So somewhere between 19,000 and 21,000 sold so far then. Not bad.
Golfie will not be happy having to get up and down from his seat for people leaving early for half time.
no, i think its saying we've surpassed the 16,500 from 2009
“Largest crowd in at least 16 years” suggests that it surpasses every count since 2009, including 2015 vs. QPR which saw 19,469 in attendance.
What would be the point in them announcing we are set to have a crowd larger than the 16,000 that turned out to see a game in the third division in a random season where the team achieved nothing?
they must mean matchday tickets are treble, not including season tickets - can't think we've sold 3 times as many including season tickets at this stage - despite all my promotional work
Did you get the job advertised for the Marketing Department?
Yes they are paying me well - I’ve only had to put a couple of provocative posts on here and look at the results - just hope the new commercial supremo doesn’t want me to come into the office

Make sure @MillwallFan is not allowed entry to our place
Would be easier just to tell us as of 4pm today we have sold …… so many.
End of.
But that is not the purpose of the messaging. It’s a positive messaging campaign, aimed as a prompt to get people excited, fear of missing out of preferential seats so encouraging to purchase earlier. That then leads to next level messaging of further strong sales etc till it gets to a figure they feel confident of actually saying.
It worked for the Wrexham game, the last game of the season and hopefully it will work again here.

Trouble with that sort of marketing approach is, to me, they come across as they are trying to be too clever and trying to con you into believing they are saying something different. Sometimes, if you’ve got something positive to say in your marketing you need to be clear about it. If the number sold so far really is that good then saying what it is would have been a much more effective way of encouraging others to buy, imo. If they had come out and said 18k, 19k or 20k tickets had already been sold we’d all have been shouting get in…

Or they think there are 9,000 seats left, I'll decide later.

It's not trying to trick anybody, its capturing the imagination - its saying, look, people are on board and believing that things are better now than they have been for 16 years - this isn't another flash in the pan - whilst i berate people on here for not having a season ticket and NJ tells them its never been a better time and they'd be mad not to - its going like a dream - i'm anticipating a sell out once our next couple of champagne signings are through the door

Im amazed people can see a positive message such as weve sold more opening game tickets for at least 16 years and decide that the club are "trying to be too clever and trying to con you..."

We would have been excited, but on social media the trolls from other clubs would have mocked it as being low (if their attendances by number are higher) the message the club has put out stays positive, even hopefully in the comments, and it shows how far we have come as a club on and off the pitch to be able to bring in large crowds again

I’m a Charlton fan. I see what looks like to me to be the verbal equivalent of a picture of some packets of crisps and bottles of fizzy pop and wonder why such a positive message has to be cryptic…
18,19 and 20k tickets sold at this stage isn’t something for other clubs fans to mock. At the Valley it’s something they should be fearing…
We will get about eight games with attendances above 20,146. A number the other two Championship London clubs will neverget at their grounds. Watford don’t count, as Watford is to London as Crystal Palace are, i.e. not London clubs.

Makes for a fantastic atmosphere as the players walk out.
